#589 - Peace & Life: Let Us Give Thanks - November 26, 2021

Many of our member groups, naturally, will be rallying on the steps of the Court in supp

Their pitch: “Abortion is one of the thorniest political issues in America, and it’s been that way for years. But it’s also an area where Americans’ views are complex and often contradictory. What people really think about abortion access is notoriously difficult to capture in a poll. And how peop
